Chapter 1204

The policemen walked away in embarrassment.

No matter how reluctant Jox was, he had to leave when learning that the case had been solved and that the suspect had been arrested. He had no reason to stay.

"Do you feel that the policeman deliberately targeted you just now?" Cedrick asked.

After chasing away the annoying policemen, Cedrick pulled Catelyn into his arms and held her.

Catelyn nodded. "He not only targeted me, but also deliberately defamed my father, as if he wished my father abused his power to protect me..."

'Did Darwin really call you last night?" Cedrick queried.

"Yes." Catelyn took out her phone and swiped to the page of missed calls. "He phoned me in the middle of the night.

Perhaps I was in deep sleep and didn't hear it... Didn't you hear the ring, either? It's strange."

Cedrick tightened his arms around her waist. He wouldn't tell her that he had put her phone on silent mode before going to bed.

Many incidents happened these days. Their daughter disappeared. Brayion announced that Catelyn was his daughter.

And Catelyn was often awakened by nightmares at night.

So, Cedrick silenced her phone so that she could sleep peacefully.

He didn't expect Darwin to call her for help...

A trace of coldness flashed in his eyes. He raised Catelyn's chin and caressed her lips. "It is likely that Darwin died because he divulged the clues to you. In other words, the Moran family intended to kill him and meanwhile put the blame on you to implicate the president. They want to kill two birds with one stone."

Catelyn sighed and pressed her lips. "Darwin was murdered because of telling me the clues anyway. Does he have any relatives? I want to give them compensation."

"Okay," Cedrick replied.

However, the discussion of Darwin's death didn't end because Chief Sears stated that the murderer had been caught.

Instead, his death was reported on TV in the afternoon.

In the interview with Brayion in the Old House during the day, Darwin publicly queried whether Brayion had other intentions when declaring Catelyn his daughter at that time. Then Darwin died that night. So, the host in the program explicitly connected the crime with Catelyn and Brayion.

Even if he was reminded that the murderer was a robber, the host downplayed it and even hinted that someone had Darwin murdered and that the robber was just a scapegoat.

Alfred also watched the program and immediately discussed the situation with Brayion.

As Catelyn couldn't go out, she, Brayion and Alfred started video chatting.

Although it was afternoon, Alfred seemed to have just taken a bath. It was summer, and he didn't wear a shirt. With a towel on his shoulders, he sat in the study against the sunlight. His skin was lighter than wheat, and his build was muscular. He had eight-pack abdominal muscles and no fat on his body.

He was a perfect example of a man who looked slender when dressed and athletic when stripped.

Catelyn had never seen the naked Alfred before. When Alfred's strong body jumped into her eye when the video was connected, she was amazed.

'Why didn't I replace that Alfred had such a charming figure?

'His figure seems as good as Cedrick's.'

"Catelyn, the Moran family has controlled part of the media and is guiding the public opinion. In the short term, you and Cedrick had better stay at home," Brayion, who looked calm in a neat suit, spoke to Catelyn in a very soft voice.

Catelyn didn't realize that she was staring infatuatedly at Alfred's body until hearing Brayion's voice.

She looked away while using a cough as a disguise. "Okay.

What I'm most worried about now is that the Moran family will use this to attack you..."

"I've been in the political arena of Fidelysia for so many years. What the Moran family has done won't disturb me. Don't worry," Brayion answered.
